The strength of our economy lies in the thousands of small businesses that drive growth and create opportunities across our islands. On #MSMEDay, we recognise their contribution to building a stronger and a more resilient Maldivian economy.
Through Maldives 2.0, we are expanding access to finance, digital tools, infrastructure, and global markets. From cultural centres supporting heritage entrepreneurs to the Creator Hub, SME Digital financing, and international market access through Alibaba and PayPal, we are creating new pathways for growth and success.
Our commitment is clear; opportunities must be accessible to all. As we dedicate 2026 and 2027 to advancing SMEs, we remain focused on building an economy where every entrepreneur has the support needed to thrive.
Minister Hassan Zareer and senior officials of the Ministry met today with the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) delegation, led by Mr. Muhammad Nassis bin Sulaiman, Head of the IsDB Regional Hub (Bangladesh and Maldives), and Mr. Iftekhar Alam, Senior Manager of the International Islamic Trade Finance Corporation (ITFC).
Discussions focused on the strategic direction of the Maldives’ new Member Country Partnership Strategy (MCPS) 2026–2030 and opportunities to further strengthen cooperation between the Government of Maldives and the Islamic Development Bank Group in support of the country’s development priorities.

On this #UNPublicServiceDay, we honour the dedication and resolute efforts by the public servants, who are tirelessly working towards the betterment of our societies, advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and safeguarding communities globally.
The Government of the Maldives reaffirms our commitment to strengthening public institutions and supporting those who serve with integrity and excellence.
I extend my heartfelt appreciation towards the public servants and institutions of the Maldives for their steadfast dedication and unwavering services to the public welfare.
As we celebrate Olympic Day, we honour the athletes, coaches, and young dreamers who remind us that greatness begins with determination, exceptional self-discipline, and remarkable courage.
Today is a powerful reminder that every journey starts with a single step. We remain committed to creating opportunities for young people to embrace sport and physical activity, helping them develop confidence, perseverance, and realise their full potential.
May sport continue to empower our youth, strengthen our nation, and build bridges of friendship among people and countries around the world.

To celebrate World Environment Day and World Oceans Day, we held the “Mee Raajje Ey Reethi” Clean-Up Day at Hulhumalé Beach this morning. Minister Abdulla Rafiu joined youth participants in taking action to help keep our beaches and oceans clean.
On #WorldBloodDonorDay, we recognise the invaluable contribution of voluntary blood donors, whose generosity helps save lives. Their selfless act ensures that those suffering from lifelong conditions or patients requiring emergency care receive the support they need when it matters most.
Blood remains an irreplaceable resource, despite the remarkable advancement in medicine and technology. Therefore, voluntary blood donation is essential in safeguarding public health, effective healthcare delivery and national emergency preparedness.
For a geographically dispersed island nation such as the Maldives, timely access to blood can make a critical difference during medical emergencies. This Administration remains committed to create awareness and promoting voluntary blood donation and strengthening a culture of solidarity and shared responsibility in protecting health and well-being of everyone.
